9.1.2 HOW TO ADJUST THE QUICK RELEASE
Quick releases clamp systems do not need tools, they are frequently used for seat
stems, axles and folding systems.
The quick releases consists of two principal parts which must be adjusted
a) The blocking lever which applies the force and.
b) The nut to adjust the lever’s strength.
For the proper and safe clamp adjustment, follow the following steps:
1. Turn the lever to the open position ( “open” is engraved on the lever ). See Figure 8
Figure 8 Figure 9
2. Choose the desired height while respecting the maximum indicated (Figure 6).
3. Turn the lever to close ( “Close is engraved on the lever”).
(Figure 8)
4. If the lever is easily set to the “Close” position (less than 50 N (Newton ), this means
that it is not tight enough, in this case, open again the lever to the “OPEN” (Figure 9)
and tight the quick release again clockwise until noticing is well tight
5. Turn the lever to the “close” position. Once fastened in the right position (“Close” is
engraved on the lever) Figure 8
6. If the force required to turn the lever were excessive (more than 200 N (Newton)
repeat the previous step, turning the bold counter-clockwise. Do this as many times as
necessary until safe
The quick release must be positioned in a way that it does not interfere
with other components and easy to be handled
